One of my favourite locations seen in PEPLUM films is this one located in the Sousse Governorate in Tunisia. The top screengrab is from KINDAR THE INVULNERABLE and below SON OF CLEOPATRA. The use of this location in KINDAR is brilliant and adds a lot to the otherworldly atmosphere of the story.
Can you give us any kind of number on the amount of all PEP films that were made in Tunisia, Egypt, and Morocco? Seems like there must of been many. I know that many were made in present day Croatia.
ReplyDeleteI could list a dozen films on the top of my head but I can't tell you the actual number of films made in those countries.
